Wither Immortality
This is the condition that James Candle (Abernum Magathrin)'s body has achieved after being poisoned and left to die to the Wither. It has granted his body functional immortality and an incredible durability in combat.
Transmission & Vectors
The Wither poison. In all other cases, this poison has been lethal, but in Candle's case, it has had the opposite effect.
Causes
Body learns to manipulate its processes (such as Adrenalin) to be able to heal itself rapidly and metabolize quickly. It also gains the ability to regrow the telomeres on his DNA, making him incapable of aging. It learns this from exposure to Wither, which accelerates all these processes until the body is dead.
Symptoms
Regenerative ability, incapability to age.
Treatment
Starving to death, drowning, destroying the heart or severing the head, incineration.
Prognosis
Immortality.

This has never once happened in history, except to one man: James Candle, or Abernum Magathrin.
